Olivier Grisel added the comment: Related question: is there any good reason that would prevent to pass a custom `start_method` kwarg to the `Pool` constructor to make it use an alternative `Popen` instance (that is an instance different from the `multiprocessing._Popen` singleton)?
This would allow libraries such as joblib to keep minimal side effect by try to impact the default multiprocessing runtime as low as possible. ---------- nosy: +Olivier.Grisel _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18999> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
